PIX went into ROM monitor after reset

[wdong]

I have a pair of PIX535(primary&failover), the primary resetted sometimes because the number of connection exceed the max number of the firewall, after the primary PIX resetted, it went into the ROM monitor, and the failover PIX can't take its place. so I have to reload the primary PIX manually. What happened to the PIX?

Hi,

Does this happens consistently? If so you might need to open up the TAC case.

Also error message and configuration may help find out the solution.

Turning on features like logging console debug will

crash the PIX.
